When CGM Funds decided to renovate their Newbury Street offices, the challenge was to meet an aggressive budget while maintaining an upscale, classic look. The 8,000 SF renovation took place over seven weeks. Pre-construction planning was essential and played a key role in identifying the long lead items to be preordered. The exterior of the Newbury Street building reflects the style of historic Boston, a design theme carried throughout the interior space. The 8th floor offices combine rich burgundy tones with floor-to-ceiling glass and cool blue walls.

To remain within budget, elements including the stone tile, drywall  and pieces of glass wall were all re-used. A new lighting system was installed throughout the space, along with minor mechanical upgrades. The conference rooms and offices are enclosed by glass walls. A signature “bubble wall” of ceiling-to-floor curved glass, installed in waves, enhances the unique style of the space. The Commodore team managed the fast-track schedule and adhered to an aggressive budget without any compromise in quality.
